    Dr. Kaniecki is a fantastic doctor. I drive 2.5 hours for my appointments and don't regret it at all. He explains everything very well, is thorough and has never been dissmissive like I've had other providers be in the past. I've also only met him 1 other time and he remembered me and my history very well. He is professional, kind and very knowledgable. I am very thankful for him and his care.

    Dr. Kaniecki was well worth the 3 month wait for 1st time patients. I saw him for a 2nd opinion and drove from NJ to see him. He explained things that were going on with me that no other Dr had in the past. Very knowledgable and so much expertise in his field among others. I couldn't have asked for a more informative, patient, specialist.

    DR. Kaniecki has a very positive, congenial, competent attitude that easily puts you at ease. I feel very comfortable telling him about my condition, asking him questions, and pressing him on follow-up questions. He almost always has answers and will seek out answers if necessary. I feel very lucky that he is my rheumatologist. (My prior rheumatologist was [staff], who was a VERY tough act to follow, but Dr. Kaniecki has definitely come through).
